What buying 0.01 BTC really costs
The live figure above is the market price. On an exchange you'll pay more, because of the trading fee and the spread. With example costs of a 1% fee and a 0.5% spread, buying 0.01 BTC costs about …. (That's the live price × 0.01 × 1.005 ÷ 0.99.) Your exchange shows its real figures in the order preview; the true cost calculator works them out.
Fees when you move it
Sending it on-chain costs a fee in sats that doesn't depend on the amount. A simple payment of about 140 vbytes at 10 sat/vB costs about 1,400 sats, just 0.14% of 1,000,000 sats. At this size network fees matter much less than at 0.001 BTC, though they're still worth checking on busy days.
"A million sats"
Because 0.01 BTC is a round million sats, some savers use it as a milestone. If you're buying regularly, the 1,000,000 sats page shows how many weeks it takes at different weekly amounts at today's price. It's arithmetic, not a plan or a recommendation.
